One hundred and twenty primary school children experienced the rural life at the school’s Top Farm.

The highlight for many this year was the virtual reality experience offered by Meat and Livestock Australia’s (MLA) virtual reality Paddock to Plate Story. The big bus pulled into the farm on its way back from Beef Australia 2018 in Rockhampton.

The kids were delighted.

“It was weird but fun,” said Hayley Holman of Mount George Public School who cited the bus as her favourite part of the day.
